Dear Divine Family

In summary, Charlie Bhai arrived on the 6th, and we conducted a two-day Centreliwasi (Centre Residents) Retreat at the Dehiwala Centre. A total of 107 Centerwasis participated in this powerful gathering. The retreat was deeply refreshing, with Charlie Bhai’s words of inspiration and his profound spiritual wisdom bringing renewed clarity and strength to all participants.

On Sunday, June 8th, a special half-day program was held with the Colombo family and nearby centers. The event took place in the new hall and brought together approximately 260 BKs along with 107 Centrelivasis. The atmosphere was vibrant and uplifting. During the program, Charlie Bhai answered many heartfelt questions from the BK family and offered beautiful spiritual insights.

In the evening, Charlie Bhai visited Ambalama Resort for a public program, which was very well-received. He also visited the Hangwala Center, where he met with many Sinhala-speaking souls from Buddhist backgrounds. His presence and message were warmly welcomed and deeply appreciated by all who attended.

On Monday, June 9th, the second day of the Centrelivasi Retreat continued. Everyone enjoyed the opportunity to be in Charlie Bhai’s company again and felt uplifted by his guidance and inspiration.

On Tuesday, June 10th, Charlie Bhai conducted Amritvela at the Dehiwala Centre. He then visited the Kotahena Centre, located about 15 kilometers away, where he conducted a Murli class and offered sustenance to the local BK family.

Later that day, he began his journey to Jaffna, stopping first at Puttalam, where Baba has recently acquired a new property. There, he was warmly received by around 30 BKs. Though it was a short visit, he met the family, offered blessings, and shared a few words of spiritual inspiration.

On the way to Jaffna, he stopped at Vavuniya, where he had a late lunch and met the BK family. His presence was greatly appreciated and brought joy to the local group. He then continued the journey to Jaffna.

On Wednesday, June 11th, a special full-day program was organized in Jaffna, bringing together BKs from all across the Northern Province. The gathering included personal meetings and deep spiritual conversations. Many souls were deeply inspired by Charlie Bhai’s wisdom, presence, and personal touch.

After completing the Jaffna visit, Charlie Bhai proceeded to Mullaitivu, where around 50 BKs warmly welcomed him. He spent time with the family, shared a few insights, and offered his blessings. The Mullaitivu family felt uplifted and grateful for his presence.

From Mullaitivu, he continued the journey toward Batticaloa. On the way, he stopped at the Manampitiya Centre, located about 60 kilometers from Batticaloa, near the ancient city of Polonnaruwa. Though a small center, the local BK family welcomed him warmly. He had lunch there, interacted with the family, and continued on to Batticaloa.

In Batticaloa, a grand and inspiring one-and-a-half-day retreat was organized in his honor. Charlie Bhai was warmly welcomed and honored during the program, which included a powerful class, an interactive question-and-answer session, and deep spiritual sharing. The retreat drew a maximum of 600 participants from the Eastern Zone as well as the Upcountry area. All arrangements, including accommodation, were beautifully organized, allowing everyone to enjoy and benefit from the atmosphere. The retreat was a truly rejuvenating experience for all who attended.

Afterwards, Charlie Bhai proceeded to Kandy, where Baba's newly purchased house had just been fully renovated. Charlie Bhai officially inaugurated the new center and named it "Ashoka Vatika—The Kandy Centre." This marks a historic moment, as after two to three decades, the Kandy BK family now has their own permanent center.

A special half-day program was held, where BKs from Kandy and nearby centers gathered—around 80 BKs in total. Charlie Bhai greeted the Kandy family warmly, offering blessings, inspiration, and spiritual sustenance. The program was filled with joy and hope for a new chapter of service in the region.

Overall, the entire journey of Charlie Bhai across Sri Lanka was truly divine. Wherever he went, it was as if a dry desert turned green—his powerful vibrations, good wishes, pure feelings, inspiring words, deep love, and sweetness touched every soul. All the BKs across the country felt spiritually uplifted and energized.

Before departing, he lovingly gave everyone homework:
“Maintain good wishes and share love—this is the need of the world today.”

We offer heartfelt thanks to Charlie Bhai, Baba, and all the instrument souls and yagya sustenance who helped make this transformative tour possible and so meaningful for the entire BK family.
